He told the Michigan Messenger he lost his job at Ciccone Vineyard in Suttons Bay, Mich. — about 16 miles north of Traverse City — more than a year ago.

He told the newspaper that his family has “turned their back” on him.

“You think I haven’t answered this kind of question a bazillion times — why my sister is a multibazillionarie, and I’m homeless on the street?” he said.

Ciccone said he collects cans and bottles and does odd jobs for income.

Tony Ciccone, father of Anthony and Madonna, in 2004 denied reports that his vineyard was in financial trouble and his pop-star daughter had bailed him out with $900,000 in exchange for a majority share of the business.

Madonna, whose full name is Madonna Louise Ciccone, has three other brothers — one, Christopher Ciccone, wrote the unauthorized tell-all book “Life with My Sister Madonna” — two sisters and one half-sister.
